Rolling average, I believe.

So would that mean that your highest score posted after 500 hands will be your highest score until you beat it? I'm trying to gauge if the rolling average could negatively affect a posted score if you continued to play.

your highest score will be the highest 500 hand spell from any start point, could be hand 1, hand 12464, doesn't matter

Exactly. You'll have a score for hands 1-500, another from 2-501, another from 3-502, etc. Your highest score of all of them is what counts.

Ok, I'm trying to avoid specifics but it sounds like you are saying your highest posted score will always be your highest score unless you beat it.

I'm talking about the score on the page. If the page displays 600 points at anytime after 500 hands you can not have a score lower than 600 from that point on, correct? I'm asking if the score the page displays will be your highest score if you don't improve it and can not be lowered by further play.

Ok, so in order for your score to have ever been posted it accounted for a 500 point stretch, so thus any further play can not negatively affect a posted scrore/lower it. (as far as it staying your highest, I understand your rolling score can be lowered by further play)

I guess what I was trying to figure out is if the posted score was some sort of "on pace" score or if it was a score achieved in a 500 hand stretch thus could not be changed. Thanks for the replies, btw.

Just the best score will count, all is written in the rules:

Once players have reached the 500 qualifying hand threshold, they can continue playing and attempt to beat their original score. For each qualifying hand played after reaching the threshold, the player’s Leaderboard chip score will be based on the amount of chips earned in their last 500 qualifying hands played. If at any point this score is higher than the original score posted on the Leaderboard, the current score will replace the original score on the Leaderboard and become that player’s official chip score for the Promotion.

Nice, thanks. I actually read those rules but it was right before the promo started and I guess I didn't remember it because it wasn't in context at that time.

I should have read them again, but regardless, thanks for confirming for me.

heh, this is actually genius, should be able a ton of points like this

charts up again

they look unchanged

if its all points, i guess i am playing cash this week

they're definitely updating. it's got my highest score on there in real time.

i just meant as far as the previous scores at least for most of the leaders:

"The Challenge durrrr Leaderboards are currently unavailable while we verify that all players have received the correct scores."

There has been some changes.

My score went up with 9 chips. Not gonna give exact numbers but let's say it went from 803 to 812. And this is for the same stretch of hands that was already my highscore from the first day.

So either there was a problem with the scoring or some cheater was removed and I was the new winner of a hand. I prefer this case as that should mean a refund in cash as well.

Actually it seems like either a lot of players got highscores during the downtime or many got their previous scores lifted. I went down 3 times as many places in the ranks over the 3rd day compared to how many that passed me on the day before.

aight, just put up a 500 qualifying hand play like a limptard session at 5nl fr rush for just over 1k points, into the low 200's on the leaderboard. hopefully that holds to get to the freerolls
